About The LEGO Batman Movie

In the irreverent spirit of fun that made THE LEGO® MOVIE a
worldwide phenomenon, the self-described leading man of that ensemble —
LEGO Batman — stars in his own big-screen adventure. But there are big
changes brewing in Gotham, and if he wants to save the city from The
Joker’s hostile takeover, Batman may have to drop the lone vigilante
thing, try to work with others and maybe, just maybe, learn to lighten
up.

Will Arnett reprises his starring role from THE LEGO MOVIE as the
voice of LEGO Batman, aka Bruce Wayne. Zach Galifianakis stars as The
Joker; Michael Cera as the orphan Dick Grayson; Rosario Dawson as
Barbara Gordon; and Ralph Fiennes as Alfred. The LEGO® Batman Movie will
be directed by Chris McKay, and produced by Dan Lin, Phil Lord,
Christopher Miller, and Roy Lee, who worked together on THE LEGO MOVIE.
It is written by Seth Grahame-Smith and Chris McKenna & Erik Sommers,
with additional screenplay material by Jared Stern & John Whittington,
based on LEGO Construction Toys. Jill Wilfert, Keith Malone, and Will
Allegra serve as executive producers.

From Warner Bros. Pictures and Warner Animation Group, in association
with LEGO System A/S, a Lin Pictures / Lord Miller / Vertigo
Entertainment production, The LEGO Batman Movie will open in
theaters on February 10, 2017. It will be distributed by Warner Bros.
Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.
